In a scathing monologue on Friday night, Fox News host
Tucker Carlson laid into Rep. Adam Schiff for his years of “lies” regarding the
Trump/Russia investigation. After reviewing the transcripts of House
Intelligence Committee interviews that were made public last week, Carlson said
that it was now clear that Schiff and his Democrat cronies sold the American
people a false bill of goods every time they appeared on cable news.

“In 2016, during the campaign, someone stole information
from the DNC’s email server that wound up online and embarrassed Hillary
Clinton. Democrats quickly blamed that on Russian agents and Donald Trump …
their pawn. In fact, there was never real evidence that that actually
happened,” Carlson said.

The DNC servers, noted Carlson, were never inspected by
federal investigators. That’s primarily because the DNC refused to turn them
over to the FBI.

“Instead, the servers were inspected by a third party
company called CrowdStrike,” Carlson said.

Referring to the transcripts, Carlson said that when Schiff
interviewed Shawn Henry of CrowdStrike, the tech president told him that “we do
not have concrete evidence” that Russia was behind the hack.

“Adam Schiff heard those words directly, he heard them from
the one person who would know for certain,” Carlson said. “Adam Schiff knew
there was nothing substantial at the core of the Russian collusion story, at
the very center it was hollow, a sham. Schiff never even suggested this in
public, and said the opposite. He spent years on television telling you it was
totally real.”

Carlson then played a damning montage of Schiff on cable
news, telling the world that he had “evidence” that Trump colluded with the
Russians.

“In case you weren’t counting during that montage, Adam
Schiff said ‘evidence’ nine times: and every single time, he was lying,”
Carlson said.

Schiff spent the better part of three years making his way
from news studio to news studio so he could tempt the American public with
morsels of (never revealed) information. Every time he got in front of a microphone,
he promised that once voters heard the whole story, they would know
definitively that Donald Trump stole the 2016 election with a big assist from
Vladimir Putin. This evidence never materialized. In fact, the opposite outcome
happened. The Mueller Report came out, blowing the Russia hoax out of the water
once and for all. So embarrassed was Schiff and the Democrats…that they
immediately turned their attention to a new hoax: The Ukraine debacle.

That one didn’t work out so well, either.

If Republicans had played this gambit with Obama, we would
never hear the end of it. But since the media is just as much to blame for this
hoax as Adam Schiff, we’re supposed to simply pretend that either A) none of
this ever happened, or B) Trump is somehow so good that he got away with the
biggest act of treason in American history.

If the perpetrators of this Big Lie are never held to
account, we will have set a very dangerous precedent. Thankfully, it looks like
Attorney General William Barr is determined to make sure that doesn’t happen.
